JConcepts Ultima RT6 RM Finnisher bodyshell

JConcepts introduce the Ultima RT6 RM Finnisher bodyshell for Kyosho’s 2014 Cactus Classic winning 1/10th stadium truck. Based off the T4.1 Finnisher, the RT6 compatible variant has been updated to include pre-dimpled locations for the RT6. A revised front hood scoop allows plenty of clearance for the unique RT6 geometry while smoothing out the front down force area. Front chin spoiler, headlight and grill protect the front-end from unwanted up-drafts during flight while, like the ROAR National Champion Hi-Flow SCT body, the Finnisher body has built-in air escape passages which allow the customer to fine-tune the body for maximum outdoor performance. The body includes the high performance gurney spoiler which increases rear grip and balances the handling characteristics of the aggressively styled body.
